Camel Corps Sports.

At the I2th. Company Camel Corps Sports, held on March 22nd. and 23rd., practically every unit of surrounding "Stations" was represented among the visitors. Many ladies were present, too, and some even took seats in the Stadium and witnessed the two preliminary bouts. The efforts of the Committee, and especially the Secretary, Allen Moore, assisted by Pte. Born-berg, as Clerk of the Course, and Cpls. Graham and Deler, met with signal success. In the evening, a Concert Party from No. 2 AS.H. gave an entertainment in the boxing stadium. It was excellent in every way. The Concert Party and many of the visitors were entertained at dinner by the N.C O's. There were cash prizes for each event on the Sports' programme, and a substantial amount was handed to those taking part in the boxing contest-!, the whole of this money being provided by the men's mess funds and gate.
